2026 Summer Motorhome and Van Tire Test P3 of 7

Continental VanContact Ultra stands out for its very low rolling resistance and quiet pass-by noise, making it the most fuel-efficient and refined tire in the group alongside the Michelin. It also scored well for lateral grip and subjective handling, with testers noting secure, predictable cornering and good lane-change stability. The weak point is braking: stopping distances on both wet and dry surfaces are longer than average. Continental positions this tire more toward van and panel-van use than heavy overcab motorhomes, and the character reflects that - safe in corners, less aggressive under hard braking.
